Corero Network Security plc

("Corero" or the "Company")

Customer Contract Expansion

Corero (AIM: CNS) (OTCQX: DDOSF), the distributed denial of service ("DDoS") protection specialists, is pleased to announce a 5-year, $1.2 million expansion of its partnership with Lightedge, a leading provider of secure, compliant hybrid infrastructure and services. The new agreement extends Corero's high-performance DDoS protection across Lightedge's growing network of data centres in both the United States and globally, replacing an existing provider in part of the infrastructure.

The expanded deployment strengthens Lightedge's defence against increasingly sophisticated DDoS attacks targeting cloud service providers and critical infrastructure, an area under constant pressure as hybrid environments scale and regulatory expectations grow.

This contract expansion reflects a broader industry shift toward flexible, AI-ready security architectures that adapt in real-time-without manual intervention or costly downtime, which Corero's DDoS protection supports. 

As organisations reassess cloud strategies and bring workloads back to private and hybrid environments, management believes that infrastructure providers globally will continue to rethink how they defend against evolving cybersecurity threats.

Carl Herberger, Chief Executive Officer at Corero, commented:

"Lightedge is helping businesses thrive in the hybrid cloud era - where performance, compliance, and uptime are non-negotiable. We're proud to deepen our partnership with Lightedge, delivering protection that's as scalable and dynamic as the threats it defends against."
